Merge tag 'modules-5.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux
Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain: - It was time to tidy up kernel/module.c and one way of starting with that effort was to split it up into files. At my request Aaron Tomlin spearheaded that effort with the goal to not introduce any functional at all during that endeavour. The penalty for the split is +1322 bytes total, +112 bytes in data, +1210 bytes in text while bss is unchanged. One of the benefits of this other than helping make the code easier to read and review is summoning more help on review for changes with livepatching so kernel/module/livepatch.c is now pegged as maintained by the live patching folks. The before and after with just the move on a defconfig on x86-64: $ size kernel/module.o text data bss dec hex filename 38434 4540 104 43078 a846 kernel/module.o $ size -t kernel/module/*.o text data bss dec hex filename 4785 120 0 4905 1329 kernel/module/kallsyms.o 28577 4416 104 33097 8149 kernel/module/main.o 1158 8 0 1166 48e kernel/module/procfs.o 902 108 0 1010 3f2 kernel/module/strict_rwx.o 3390 0 0 3390 d3e kernel/module/sysfs.o 832 0 0 832 340 kernel/module/tree_lookup.o 39644 4652 104 44400 ad70 (TOTALS) - Aaron added module unload taint tracking (MODULE_UNLOAD_TAINT_TRACKING), to enable tracking unloaded modules which did taint the kernel. - Christophe Leroy added CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC which lets architectures to request having modules data in vmalloc area instead of module area. There are three reasons why an architecture might want this: a) On some architectures (like book3s/32) it is not possible to protect against execution on a page basis. The exec stuff can be mapped by different arch segment sizes (on book3s/32 that is 256M segments). By default the module area is in an Exec segment while vmalloc area is in a NoExec segment. Using vmalloc lets you muck with module data as NoExec on those architectures whereas before you could not. b) By pushing more module data to vmalloc you also increase the probability of module text to remain within a closer distance from kernel core text and this reduces trampolines, this has been reported on arm first and powerpc folks are following that lead. c) Free'ing module_alloc() (Exec by default) area leaves this exposed as Exec by default, some architectures have some security enhancements to set this as NoExec on free, and splitting module data with text let's future generic special allocators be added to the kernel without having developers try to grok the tribal knowledge per arch. Work like Rick Edgecombe's permission vmalloc interface [0] becomes easier to address over time.
